Odyssey As A Hero

As A Hero

I think Odyssey is a hero because he is smart/clever, a leader, and strong. To me those are the characteristics of a hero.

Strong Mentally

"Cyclops, you asked my name, and I will tell it: give me afterwards a guest gift as you promised. My name is Nobody. Nobody, my father, mother, and friends call me."
This is what makes Odyssey strong and a hero. He is not afraid to say what is the truth. He dosent let anyone call himn out and he dosent care what anyone says about. He stays STRONG!

Clever/Smart

"...leaving me with murder in my heart searching a way to take vengeance on him, if Athene would grant me inspiration." He is clever/smart, he wants to fine a way to make something happen. To me this is a hero because all hero's need to know how to get through obstacles and find a way to get past all of the challenges that they face and Odyssey is trying to find a way.

Leader

"But when he had buised himself at his tasks, he again seized two of my men and began to eat them. That was when I went up to him, holding an iny-wood bowl full of dark wine, and said: here, Cyclops, have some wine to follow your meal of human flesh, so you can taste the sort of drink we carried in our ship. I was bringing the drink to you as a gift, hoping you might pity me and help me on my homeward path: but your savagery is past bearing. Cruel man, why would anyone on Earth ever visit you again, when you behave so badly.?" He is a leader because he wanted to do the right thing. He was the one that didnt want to do anything bad and what was really good to do, he also wanted to lead other people to the right direction. This is also why he is a good hero.
